 127                            <div class="entry-body">
 128                               <ul>
 129   <li>Changed gpdb_add_vob.pl to use Rexec.pm in order that it may be able to collect information about vobs from other sites</li>

 131
 132                               <h3>gpdb_add_vob.pl and other sites</h3>
 133
 134 <p>It was hoped that we cout point things to "login servers" instead of machines specifically designated as DesignSync servers as had been the case for gpdb_add_project.pl. These script really only require cleartool and access, through the automount map, to the sync_custom area in order to pick up the SiteRegistry.reg file.</p>
 135
 136 <p>However gpdb_add_vob.pl uses a heuristic in an attempt to determine what project a particular vob is associated with. The heuristic states that the vob storage path will have as part of it's path, a project directory. While this is often, but not always, the case here in Dallas, it is not the case at all in Nice! Thus, even though gpdb_add_vob.pl can log into remote sites to gather information about vobs, when logging into Nice it finds that no vob in Nice adheres to this convention and thus it cannot add vob records for any vob in Nice. Nice had been using vob attributes for things like the AID of the owner of the vob but there is no attribute for the project that a vob is associated with!</p>
